Hey, folks! One
thing you should know about us is that we love exploring area and finding
beautiful bakeries, cafés, restaurants, etc. Usually, there’s such a good
energy in places like that and, yeah, we LOVE food. So from now on, we will
share with you our favourite spots in Kiev. Are you ready? Hope you said “yes”!
:)

This café is a part of
Creative space 12. The place consists of cultural, educational and
entertainment centre, design shop and a café that we are going to talk about. A
cool thing about it is that every month throughout the year 12 talented
Ukrainian designers are experimenting with the interior. In a short period of
time they develop a new concept of the restaurant, a complete restyling happens
– they change interior design, waiters’ clothes and the menu. This
place is quite unique as you can tell.

The atmosphere of the
corner is amazing, wish we could stay there all day long.

Talking about food, we
can’t really explain you how delicious it was. Just perfect. You should come.
Seriously. x

Hello, darlings!
Today we want to share with you Stasia’s recent look. It is very simple because
she wanted to make accent on one of her favorite vintage bags. Although she has
found it on sale, the purse is really high quality and she likes it a lot. Once
again, that proves that you don’t necessarily spend a lot of money on a good
piece. x

There are days
when you feel positive energy just walking down the streets, for no specific reason.
Today was that kind of day. We hope that somehow you could see that calm
happiness in these photos and enjoy Liza’s simple yet very chic look! x

Hey, folks! We
really enjoy watching and reading about what other bloggers carry around in
their bags, so today we decided to make that kind of a post. Since we are
students, there isn’t a lot of cool stuff in our purses :D

But still, here
we go!

Liza’s bagpack

1. Spanish exercise book.

We met after her
classes, that’s why Liza got it with herself. Yeah, guys, we study Español.

2. Two notebooks, a pen.

Who are students? We
are!

3. Hand & nails cream.

Can’t live without it.

4. Keys

Well, obviously, the
one should have a keychain. Oh, and look how many cute breloques she’s got!

5. Flesh memory

Study, study,
studyyyyyy.

6. Lipbalm

Can’t live without it
numero dos.

7. Sunglasses

Can’t live without it
numero tres. Seriously, there’s no chance you’re gonna meet us not wearing a
pair of sunglasses.

Hello, loves! As promised,
here are Stasia’s photos from the botanical garden we shot a couple days ago.
In the background you can see domes of ancient St. Michael’s Vydubytskyi monastery.
This is definitely a place you should visit if you are in Kiev. We hope you
like our shoot and will travel to Kiev someday to see all the wonderful places
and picturesque views of our city. x

We can’t express
how much we love spring. It’s not too cold, it’s not too hot and everything is
blooming. Ahh. For that reason, it was so pleasant to have a shoot in the botanical
garden. We enjoyed it and hope you will like the result. x

These days there’s
such a huge amount of information, photos, books, videos and films dedicated to
fashion and its masters, so today we wanted to share with you a list of some
films about this sphere we consider to be the ones that every fashion lover
should watch.

1. The September
Issue.

To be honest,
this is one of our favorite films related to fashion. We find it so exciting
because while watching the film you really get to know a lot of things about
creating the issue. There’s no doubt that Anna Wintour is one of the most powerful
people in the industry so it is gripping to have a look on her work as well.

2. Five Years. The
Victoria Beckham Fashion Story.

These series of
videos had to be in our list since both of us adore Victoria’s designs and her
determination to what she does. Brand’s collaboration with Skype gives you
unique opportunity to discover little yet significant details about creating a
collection, fashion marketing, retail, etc. To find out more about the project
visit http://collaboration.skype.com/victoria-beckham.

3. Bill Cunningham
New York.

We love this
wonderful motion picture about the legendary street fashion photographer. Cunningham
says: “I don’t
decide anything. I let the street speak to me, and in order for the street to
speak to you, you’ve got to stay out there and see what it is.” He's definitely one of a kind so it's just a must-see.

4. Valentino: The Last Emperor.

The documentary
that lets us see what’s behind the curtains of Valentino Garavani’s work is
just a real masterpiece, we think. It is very inspiring, honest, funny, and, of
course, it’s full of beauty. We truly believe that glory of this great
couturier will never fade and he will always has his place in history of
fashion.

Surely there are
more fashion-related films out there and maybe we will continue this list with
our short reviews, but for now we’d love to know what your favourite one is. Leave
the comments below and have a nice day! x

Hi to everyone
out there! It’s not a secret that we love fashion. Since we are students,
usually we can’t afford to buy designer clothes or accessories. Sure enough we
would love to have all the things we want to but everything has its time. For
now, we like to shop at vintage spots, fascinating markets with unique and
interesting pieces. It can be really amusing and worthwhile. Most of things
Stasia wore today are vintage or have no brand. We hope you’ll like the look
and maybe get some inspiration. x

воскресенье, 11 мая 2014 г.

Sometimes you
want to wear something really simple and comfortable yet look good. For Liza it
was that day. We think it’s a nice outfit for a weekend or even a working day.
Anyway, don’t forget to enjoy little things and be happy no matter what day of
a week it is. x

Hey, loves! Today’s post is inspired by the tendency
of wearing blue shades. This outfit isn’t runaway-like but it’s suitable for an
everyday life. Since Stasia loves blue, she enjoyed the look. We hope you like
it too and find it useful. x

Hey, folks! The “protagonist”
of today’s post are floral pants. Liza’s wardrobe is not full of different
prints, she’s more about chic monotone colours. However, she loves these
bottoms and admits that every time she wears them her mood switches for a
better one. Tell us what peace of clothes/print/colour cheers you up when you
put it on. Anyway, we hope you like how Liza styles the look. x

Hello everybody!
Hope you’re all enjoying spring sun and have some fun! Today you can discover a
couple of beauty products both of us have been using recently. So here we go!

Stasia’s choice:

1. Yves Rocher, Gommage
Gourmand Abricot (Apricot Fruity Scrub)

This facial
exfoliator is incredible. It has a nice texture that is gentle to your skin. I’ve
got dry and sensitive skin type and this gommage works perfectly for me. I like
that it not only exfoliates, but also moisturizes my skin. The product smells
amazing, so it’s always a pleasure to use it.

2. Gosh, Natural Touch
Foundation

To be honest, I
don’t usually wear and like foundations. But this one is so good that I’ve
bought it second time. The texture is lightweight, soft, but still effective.
It contains the organic sweet almond oil that hydrates and nourishes the skin, Vitamin
A, E and has SPF 8. This foundation gives me a natural look and lasts all day.

3. Avalon Organics,
Vitamin C Renewal, Rejuvenating Oil-Free MoisturizerI’m
madly in love with this cream! No jokes. Usually, it’s quiet hard to moisturize
my skin, make it feel great and look radiant at the same time. This thing can
do it, for sure. I use it every night and apply on a clean face. At the begging
the cream seems a bit hard on skin, like a mask. Don’t worry about it, when the
product absorbs into your skin you will love it.

This
ointment is 70% organic, so that makes it even better. Oh, and it smells
wonderful, like oranges! I suggest this cream to ones who want to deeply
hydrate their skin, ensure it is fresh and renewed.

Liza’s
choice:4. Tea Tree OilI think it’s a
must-have. This oil is all-natural and you can find it in your local pharmacy
or drugstore. It will be your savior if you have a blemish, skin cut, sun burn,
etc. I use it as a natural spot cure, because the oil has antiseptic and antimicrobial activity.

If I have a break-out, I apply a bit of tea tree oil on it,
on a previously washed face before bed. As a result, I wake up with spotless
skin. I really recommend it to you, guys.

5. Maybelline, Dream Fresh BB vs L'Oréal,
Nude Magique CC CreamAs
Stasia, I don’t wear foundation on a daily basis, so BB and CC creams are my
alternatives. I prefer Maybelline’s BB to L'Oréal’s CC cream. First one is really light textured, you don’t feel it
on your face. BB suits my skin tone perfectly, giving me a natural finish. The
only thing I don’t really like about this product is it’s smell. It’s just a
bit weird.

On the contrary, L'Oréal’s CC cream has a more thick
texture than Maybelline’s BB. It doesn’t look natural enough on
the skin and has a yellowish tint. Anyway, I’m still looking for a perfect BB
or CC cream (preferably on a budget). If you know one, leave the comment below!

To
sum up, we would like to tell that all of these products are goodish, but the key
to health and beauty is your lifestyle. Try to eat clean, drink at least 2
liters of water every day, and have enough sleep. Don’t forget to remove your
make-up before bed and be as positive and happy as you can possibly be.
